This is all about the organization that aims to transform the Illinois Democratic Party from within. PDI also exists to act as a bridging organization between Progressive groups throughout Illinois. It's time for a cohesive Progressive movement, and we intend to facilitate exactly that.

This month's Chapter meeting of the American Monetary Institute will be a continuation of last month's discussion. After first viewing the original version of Money As Debt (45 minutes), Steve and Keanu will lead a question and answer period for those members seeking additional information regarding points made in the film. The second half of the meeting will be an interactive discussion, with topics more or less determined by the audience. Potential items for discussion include an examination of how the NEED Act is the only way to meet the needs of the 99% in a fair and just manner, as well as brainstorming various ways that we might raise visibility of and increase support for the NEED Act, including strategic participation in upcoming events such as the upcoming G-8 conference and the elections.
